Abstract

   This memo defines a notation describing protocol layers in a protocol
   encapsulation, specifically for use in encoding INDEX values for the
   protocolDirTable, found in the RMON-2 MIB (Remote Network Monitoring
   Management Information Base) [RFC 2021].  The definitions for the
   standard protocol directory base layer identifiers are also included.

   The first version of the RMON Protocol Identifiers Document [RFC 2074]
   has been split into a standards-track Reference portion (this
   document), and an Informational document.  The RMON Protocol
   Identifier Macros document [RFC 2896] now contains the non-normative
   portion of that specification.

   This document obsoletes RFC 2074.
